If he lives in Greengate its only a short walk to the Derby Brewery Arms right next to the brewery for the freshest ale...no excuse for not trying a few Joey Holts

Ilkay is Muslim.
Wouldn't be surprised if he was teetotal.

Clean sheet without Dias. We clean sheet FC now boys.

I think to play that way and get the clean sheet without Dias is great
It means we are not reliant on him, we’re just a great unit at the moment With three top class centre backs
Zinchenko and cancelo Off so much control, my worry is we rely on walker (ok against lesser teams) or mendy in big games

You see how many goals gundog gets, imagine Messi in there.

Yep and that game will give Laporte a lot of confidence, don’t know if it’s the stones combination will Dias and Laporte be a good partnership

The spuds players surrounding the ref when he awarded the pen. I thought they were supposed to be carding players who did that! Kane ran half the pitch to remonstrate and Lamela puts his hand on refs shoulder to get his point across. Ref should have yellow carded at least those two

 

[feedmpenzaandhewillscore]

Has that odious **** Lamela landed yet after his two footed studs up out of control lunge? The one that wasn’t deemed worthy of even a yellow card, or a VAR intervention or even a comment from the commentator? Fucking disgusting

He was a lucky boy yesterday, a thought we should have targeted him a bit more as he was giving it out to Jesus towards the end of the 1st half. Turns out Spurs were that shit it was pretty easy to despatch the 11 players they had on the pitch.

Another awesome performance, pretty much everyone operating at a consistently high level, an absolute pleasure to watch. I'm always wary of Spurs even though they rely so heavily on the Kane/Son combo and those two being completely anonymous yesterday was a fantastic testament to the work rate of the whole team. Gundo looks like the player we first signed before he sustained that injury, Bernardo is just a joy to watch, Rodri immense and Raheem showed yesterday why he is so effective, it's been too long since we saw him taking on defenders with such pace and determination. Defensively we've given Pep so many options it must give him a headache deciding who to leave out. Cancelo has shown why he was such an upgrade on Danilo and what can you say about Zinchenko? The guy who wouldn't 'go away' now looks so confident, so comfortable on the ball, so much better positionally and clearly has the trust of his team mates. I'm delighted for him and John Stones ... did I mention Dias and Laporte?

Shout out to laporte yesterday
Didn't have a lot to do. But the reverse fixture kane pulled him out of position too many times and looked like he lost his place on the back of that performance.
Hes not played a lot of football since then and he slotted back in there with easy
What a position to be in now with games coming thick and fast 3 world class centre backs to rotate

I was saying to my mate yesterday, it wasnt that long ago if Vinny was out you just knew we'd get beat. I thought it might be a repeat of that now with Dias but Stones and Laporte stepped up to the plate

Suppose this is what Pep meant when interviewed, always maintaining we're a long way off, looks like it's getting closer.
